* A skater must be representing the Parade FSC at ISI competitions for the points to be recognized. (Competition requirements are based on the PFSC fiscal calendar, which runs from May 1, 2009 thoughApril 30. 2010. (If you competed in solo events at the Summer Sizzle 2009 in Blaine or at the 2009 ISI World’s in San Jose CA, you have already earned point(s) if you were listed as representing Parade).
All Soloists, Duets and Trio’s MUST also skate their assigned group number in the Ice Show performances.
NOTE: The above requirements do not apply to skaters who just wish to skate in a group number in the Spring Ice Show.
All skaters taking Learn to Skate Classes and/or PFSC members are invited and encouraged to participate in a group number in the Spring Ice Show!
All skaters participating in the Ice Show are also invited to sign up to skate in the Family number. The number will consist of at least one skater and one other member of their family.
Group number assignments: Skaters will be grouped by ISI level and all skaters must pass the appropriate level for their group number by the January 2010 ISI test session (currently scheduled for January 16, 2010).
We may be doing a Senior skate number this year depending on the number of graduating Senior’s, replacing a Senior recognition ice show segment. This number will be opened to all HS seniors (including skaters who may only be skating on a Synchro team).
